Oct 1st American truckers are going on strike. All they have to do is stay at home. But please please please form up a convoy and head to Washington and let them truckers roll. The thought of the orange one hiding under his ballroom like Dirty Lyle as trucks rumble by fills me with joy 10-4 🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚🚛

90 years ago, Parliament responded to the rise of Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts by passing the Public Order Act, which banned political uniforms, private militias and the threat of force for political objects. The debates make very resonant reading today. Here's the Liberal Robert Bernays. (Short 🧵)
You cannot conduct a fair match when one side is playing with a ball and the other with bombs and, if democracy is to survive, it must be conducted according to definite and recognised rule. One of them is that no political party should resort to any weapon other than reason and argument. The introduction of private armies, as I see it, strikes at the root of democracy. I know it is contended that the Blackshirts are not armed and, therefore, are not an army, but I do not think that argument can be upheld. … Uniformed men in military formation suggest, and are meant to suggest, the idea of force. It is no argument to reply that at this or that demonstration no force is intended. It is an inescapable fact that a uniform in politics symbolises force, to be used either now or in the future.

The RNLI are national heroes: the pride of Britain. Fuck any wheezingly impotent Nazi scumbag who says differently. The Masked Micrococks haven’t even got the nerve to show their faces in a gaggle of no-custody divorcee cockrings, let alone do something remotely courageous for the country.
RNLI Statement:

The RNLI is a charity that exists to save lives at sea.
But recent events have generated deliberate misinformation and a misunderstanding about our purpose and our Lifesaving work in the Channel.
As a result, some of our volunteers and staff have been the subject of online and, in some cases, physical abuse.
This is unacceptable.
The RNLI's people represent the very best of society. For over two hundred years they have dedicated themselves to rescuing people they've never met before, without judgment, fear or favour.
We are tasked by HM Coastguard to help those in distress, and we'll do so whenever, wherever and whoever they are.
We launched 9,058 times in 2025.
Only 109 of those launches were to those in distress in the Channel
- 1.2% of our total rescue work. Anyone rescued from a small boat by the RNLI is then taken into the care of the relevant UK authorities.
To those who stand with the RNLI, thank you. For more than two hundred years, we've saved lives at sea around the UK and Ireland, and that commitment remains unchanged.

This footage will excite the right and enrage the left. But remember it's action like this that loses the floating voter. We don't defeat reform by persuading their base. They are lost votes. But action like this and Farage taking £5m, Reform taking dodgy overseas funding, that's what loses votes.
